No host / event verification

Anyone can list anything; nothing confirms who's actually running it

No attendee safety info

Nothing shown upfront; Meetup names scam events as a live risk

No social-energy signal

No way to gauge the vibe or crowd before committing to attend

Recurring events

Meetup shows if an event repeats but has no filter to find one; Eventbrite and Luma don't surface it at all

Review depth

Meetup has star ratings only; Eventbrite and Luma have no review section
